Pressley ran unopposed after defeating a veteran Congressman Michael Capuano in her primary two months ago. Pressley is not only the first Black woman to be elected to Congress in Massachusetts, but is “the first woman of color ever elected to the Boston City Council,” according to TheHill.com.
Pressley will represent the 7th Congressional District. This is relevant and important because it will be the first in Massachusetts where minorities make up a majority of the voting population.
Congratulations to Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley!
